MBS Academy Feldenkrais® Training

While everyone is enjoying the warm temperatures at home in Virginia I have ventured across the pond to Bad Tolz, Germany. I am once again working with Mia Segal, Dr. Feldenkrais' first assistant, at an MBS Academy Foundation Training.

I have brought 5 students with me that are all very capable riding instructors. Three are from The Netherlands and two are from the USA. These people have worked with me for a number of years and I suggested that they take this training in order to further their education in the Feldenkrais Method as this has helped me so much with my teaching.

It is great to share this experience with them. Each evening we have our Study Group to talk about how the days lessons apply to riders, riding and teaching. I find myself thoroughly enjoying the process of watching them learn and discuss the day's concepts. Finally I have some associates to whom I can discuss this work who also understand my work. It's fantastic!

I know that I always come home invigorated and inspired by Mia and this work. I am sure they will as well. I am always inspired and filled with new ideas for my students to help each one of them progress with their horses and their riding. We have only been here for 3 days and already there are so many possibilities!
